0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, straight from Pakistan to La to Boston, straight from

0:00:02.680 --> 0:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the five oh eight summit.

0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:04.360
<v Speaker 2>What up?

0:00:04.400 --> 0:00:05.760
<v Speaker 3>Man, Welcome in, Welcome.

0:00:05.480 --> 0:00:07.000
<v Speaker 2>In, Man, Thank you for having me.

0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>I only seeing you around man. Nice to see you

0:00:09.039 --> 0:00:10.800
<v Speaker 1>have behind the mic today with me.

0:00:10.880 --> 0:00:11.080
<v Speaker 3>Man.

0:00:11.320 --> 0:00:13.399
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, Bro, it's a blessing to be here for sure.

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:14.840
<v Speaker 3>Well, come in, Man. You've been doing your thing for

0:00:14.880 --> 0:00:15.240
<v Speaker 3>a minute.

0:00:15.240 --> 0:00:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Man, likewise, I see you. Yeah, likewise You're a legend. Bro.

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:20.160
<v Speaker 2>So I'm grateful to be up here. But yeah, I've

0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:21.000
<v Speaker 2>been grinding for a minute.

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:23.640
<v Speaker 1>You've never every time I've run into you, you've never

0:00:23.680 --> 0:00:25.239
<v Speaker 1>approached me about music, which is great.

0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 3>I love that. And you let the music do the talking.

0:00:27.320 --> 0:00:30.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, it's a competitive market. I'm sure you meet

0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 2>a million artists a day. Sometimes what can separate you

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:35.720
<v Speaker 2>is just not being the one that's like, hey, check

0:00:35.760 --> 0:00:37.559
<v Speaker 2>me out, check me out, yea, just like letting them,

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:39.199
<v Speaker 2>like you said, let the music do the talking. So

0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:41.520
<v Speaker 2>I think my approach has been mostly to be respectful

0:00:41.560 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 2>of your time and like just being grateful to meet

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.240
<v Speaker 2>you and just as a human being first and foremost.

0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:48.000
<v Speaker 2>And then if you ever do look into the music,

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:49.159
<v Speaker 2>that can only benefit me.

0:00:49.240 --> 0:00:49.960
<v Speaker 3>No, that's what's up.

0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 2>Man.

0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I thank you for doing that way, because, like you said,

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of people that always, like y'all want

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:56.320
<v Speaker 1>to put on for my city. I think everybody does,

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:58.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, at the end of the day, and you know,

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>you got some crazy numbers going no man, And I

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:03.280
<v Speaker 1>always tell my mixers that we have to let these

0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:06.000
<v Speaker 1>artists put in some work because there's a fine line

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>of a handout versus helping and versus enabling. You know,

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 1>when you all of a sudden get to get played

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>on jam and some people haven't put in that work

0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and don't know what to do after that, you know

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. So there's a little criteria I have

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:23.559
<v Speaker 1>where let these artists put in some work and then well,

0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 1>of course we're going to support you, but you got

0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:26.480
<v Speaker 1>to put in that first work.

0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:27.080
<v Speaker 3>So you've done that.

0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:27.240
<v Speaker 2>Man.

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 3>It's a good job.

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Man, Thank you very much. I appreciate that. Yeah, just

0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:32.880
<v Speaker 2>in being a rapper too, Like there's so many people

0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.120
<v Speaker 2>who have like not stuck with it or just like

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:37.039
<v Speaker 2>artists in general, not even just rap, but like just

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:38.760
<v Speaker 2>people who don't stick with it. And then you know,

0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 2>if you were granting them an opportunity that they weren't

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.280
<v Speaker 2>going to take advantage of or appreciate fully and then

0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 2>it would be a waste. So I like how you

0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 2>set the bar high and made people make artists like

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:47.840
<v Speaker 2>earn it.

0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. No, I just want you to see put in

0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 1>the work because if you get it, you know, we

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 1>get a lot of it. Oh, I dropped the song?

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Can we play it on jam? And it's like, Bro,

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you know what else do you have? I need to

0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.360
<v Speaker 1>hear a project. I need to see what the station

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 1>is investing in, you know, like, are we gonna help

0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 1>you become what you really want to become? You know?

0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>So good job with that, man. Do we have a sound?

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Do you think Boston has a sound? Should we have

0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.280
<v Speaker 1>a sound? Two part questions?

0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:14.519
<v Speaker 2>I think it's I think it's a eclectic sound. If anything,

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 2>I think it's there's a lot of different kinds of

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.120
<v Speaker 2>talent in Boston, and I think that individuality is kind

0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.239
<v Speaker 2>of our sound. It's like not not really generalized, but

0:02:23.360 --> 0:02:26.400
<v Speaker 2>something that you can't really pinpoint, but it's it's kind

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:29.000
<v Speaker 2>of a common thread in everybody who I see from

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 2>mass in New England is that they're they're true to themselves.

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, do you think that kind of sometimes makes it

0:02:34.400 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 1>harder just because the West has a sound New York.

0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:40.040
<v Speaker 1>When we say East Coast we mean New York, they

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:42.040
<v Speaker 1>have that sound. South has a sound. Do you think

0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>it makes it harder that way?

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 2>I think so in a sense because people like things

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:49.679
<v Speaker 2>that are packaged and easily like digested and able to

0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 2>just being able to understand them quickly. And you know

0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 2>that helps with like pitches and promotion for people like

0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.239
<v Speaker 2>to understand something, and one line is like a key

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 2>to be able to delivered to an audience or a

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 2>potential audience. So I think it can be difficult to

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.359
<v Speaker 2>like kind of put us in a box or deliver

0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 2>it in a way that's like concise for somebody on

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:11.760
<v Speaker 2>the outside. But I think in general, once once you

0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:13.680
<v Speaker 2>do see the quality of the artists that we have

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:15.960
<v Speaker 2>and the different kinds of music that we have to offer,

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 2>it's ultimately a strength, right.

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 3>No, I agree with that.

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that everyone does sound different, and then it

0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.639
<v Speaker 1>sucks because we're so close to New York that when

0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:25.600
<v Speaker 1>we do sound like you know, when we have artists

0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:27.119
<v Speaker 1>that do sound like that, it's like, oh, you're trying

0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:28.480
<v Speaker 1>to be New York. And then you got some people

0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:30.639
<v Speaker 1>that do have like a little sudden sound to them.

0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>It's like, oh, you're trying to be the sound. It's like, well,

0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 1>we can't be ourselves because then you're like telling.

0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:36.960
<v Speaker 3>Us, you know what you mean? Individual, you know what

0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:39.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean. It's such a it's such a I hate

0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 3>that game.

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.640
<v Speaker 2>But it's a double edge. So yeah, yeah, we.

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 3>Got to sum it in here right now. Five oh eight.

0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 1>You got some big features, You've connected with some big guys,

0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:49.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, being in the game for a long time.

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.560
<v Speaker 1>How did some of those networks happen? Like a method man, Like,

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:54.320
<v Speaker 1>how did how did you connect with the method Man?

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 2>Well that was through the legend terminology, so I know

0:03:57.360 --> 0:04:00.560
<v Speaker 2>you're boys with him. Term and I did a collaborative

0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.320
<v Speaker 2>album last year. It was called Made seven Song Project.

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:07.680
<v Speaker 2>On one of our songs was Ammunition, and it's basically

0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:09.960
<v Speaker 2>there's no hook to it. It's just me in Term

0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 2>just kind of barring up. And we wanted a big

0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 2>name feature on it, just one for the for that project,

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:18.440
<v Speaker 2>and Term having a relationship with metha men and it

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 2>being a perfect flow form kind of just made it

0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:22.640
<v Speaker 2>a no brainer for us to reach out at least

0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:24.880
<v Speaker 2>to see if he would be interested and luckily he

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:25.839
<v Speaker 2>was nice.

<v Speaker 2>Stee At the album him in a royal flush.

0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:31.760
<v Speaker 3>It's called royal term.

<v Speaker 1>these kind.

0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Of networks just the correct I don't know join a person,

<v Speaker 2>just being able to link with with those those guys

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 2>who are in a place that I'm aspiring to get

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 2>to is inspiring for sure.

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:09.719
<v Speaker 1>Like years of putting in work behind the scenes, you know,

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:11.800
<v Speaker 1>and I mean you've you've probably seen it from from

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 1>a long time. Yeah, that's what's up man, sum it's

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:16.680
<v Speaker 1>in here right now. I kind of read it about

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.200
<v Speaker 1>the eye. But let's explain just in case. Everything is

0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 1>capitalized with the eye. Yeah, why is that?

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.320
<v Speaker 2>It's just to symbolize, like the keep staying humble.

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.560
<v Speaker 3>How does that symbolize that? That's what that was the

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:27.960
<v Speaker 3>question of.

0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So like instead of making yourself less than what

0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:34.000
<v Speaker 2>everything else is, the eye is the is the lowercase

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 2>things and the other letters are capitalized. So it's in

0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:38.960
<v Speaker 2>the way of like the eye as in me m

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:40.839
<v Speaker 2>staying humble and small.

0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:41.960
<v Speaker 3>Got I? Got it?

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:45.400
<v Speaker 2>No matter because Some is a grandule's name kind of

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:47.599
<v Speaker 2>like you know, it's it's something that people hear and

0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:49.840
<v Speaker 2>they think that, okay, it's like reaching the top. It's

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:51.479
<v Speaker 2>being the top or being the best or something like that.

0:05:51.560 --> 0:05:53.840
<v Speaker 2>It's something that kind of balances that off and kind

0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>of tells who I am as a person.

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Ah, okay, So the some it means high point at

0:05:58.160 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the point.

0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but with him me, it's like staying humble despite that.

0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 3>Got it. That's what's up? Man?

0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:06.760
